Life and education in Terre Haute, Indiana An Indiana STATE of mind It happens every year. The faces of Indiana State ap- pear fresh in September after the hot, summer sun has cooled and the halls of ISU beckon students again. Suitcases are loaded, good-byes are exchanged and the trip to Terre Haute is made by 11,500 students from Brazil. South America to Brazil, Indiana. From New York, New York to New Albany, New Jersey . . . the faces of ISU reunite. For some it is a first encounter with a new room- mate, a fellow worker, a classmate, or a chance meeting in front of the book store before class. Regardless, we meet each other, exchange ideas, and eventually work together to become the core of ISU. Whether it be in the classroom or working on Union Board, Student Government Association, or become brothers or sisters in Greek life - we share this campus. It happens every year. That's one of the great things about our institution. Sure, we excel! in our accredited School of Business, our School of Nursing continues to produce some of the most talented, weIl-trained nurses in the country, and our School of Technology prepares advanced studies Larry Wetls Former President Gerald R Ford was one of the many important people who came to speak at lSU this year. Ford was part of the ISU Constitutional Bicentenlai ceiebration. amongst its students year after year. But that's not ail. That's not what is unique about us. Many universities have schools with excellent reputa- tions and graduated students to prove it. But we have something more. With the diversity of our student body, each student at ISU has the opportunity to meet and exchange thoughts with people throughout the nation and the world. Yet, we are small enough to build upon those encounters and maintain contact with groups and organi- zations to further enhance our college Iiveste are large enough to have the opportunites available to us, but small enough that students donit get lost in the shuffle. As ISU president Richard Landini puts it, ttWe may not be the biggest but we're the best at what we do? it is all what you make of your college life. Many choices, many chances. Many faces, many friendships. ISU is a state of mind. An Indiana State of Mind.
